I wax poetic as lifeblood imperceptibly doth wane

rew4er2nail

Mine body electric analogous

to Google map pronounced

with arteries and countless varicose vein

visible popping blood vessels

leeches haven grand old time
at expense of poor sucker
abracadabra backfired

courtesy corp hustle legerdemain.

 

Aging baby boomer
no longer fit as a fiddle

accumulating extra adipose tissue
around the middle

ain't no impossible (manu) mission,
whence thumbs I twiddle
to shed unwanted
weight methinks exorcise to unriddle.

 

Call to action necessitates
yours truly to acclimatize,
calling fitness trainer

whereby honed toned physique
(tubby synonymous with Adonis – ha)

benefits begetting courtesy to aerobicize,

nsync dumbbells compliment exercise,

whereby brutal daily grueling
regimen will also comprise

boot camp rigorous discipline

strength to pilot (minus paunches)
shouldering, managing,

hoisting crucifix sunrise

to sundown will non verbally advertize,

verily intolerant to chastise,

hence no bully best better mess
mine mean mien guise
will enjoyably capitalize

zing might equals right to authorize

self defense without need to apologize.

Back in the day, I
presented pitiful sight

self worth equated on
par with botanical blight

buffeted along boulevard
of broken dreams

depressed body language
bespoke head to foot
encompassing enfeebled edifice complex
scrawny measly gumby,
hokey pokey height

how I presented such sorry spectacle
courtesy excellent twenty/twenty hindsight

analogous to an emotional black hole,

never exhibiting courage to fight,

rather yours truly immediately took flight

and/or stood dumbfoundedly
in imitation of deaf mute wishing to alight

bajillion miles away, versus
active stance to fight

preferring the incognito
guise pitch dark vested gentry

donning luxury invisible
accouterment shade o' midnight

proffered, though natural camouflage
infrared crosshairs nonetheless did sight,

when scaredy cat sacrificial scapegoat

experienced his sealed fate, a heavy smite

upon me noggin scrambled outlook
seeing stars courtesy topflight -

(bare in) strong arms hoodlums
brandishing razor sharp dagger

type like fangs able, eager,
(think) bloodthirsty 10,000
homicidal vampire maniacs
ready and willing to bite,

especially with advent
of The Weeknd
simultaneously trumpeting
hate speech to excite

curious madding crowd
glomming to render airtight

any possible safe escape,
yours truly turned white

as a sheet, hence
needless to say, I felt aghast!
